Now is a better time than ever to consider revamping your budget and taking control of your personal finances.
Finding a way to save while paying the mortgage, car note, daycare bill, electric bill and so on can seem impossible in this economy. These days, it seems like the cost to simply breathe is through the roof.
Whether you are looking to take control of your personal finances to buy a home, save for retirement or simply find better ways to manage your debt, take a look at the podcasts below.
1. The Ramsey Show
Listen: Apple Podcasts | Spotify
The Ramsey show is a great place to start when you decide to take control of your finances. Dave Ramsey takes a lot of time on his podcast to focus on those that have made poor decisions with their money in the past.
He’s not afraid to tell it like it is. If a guest has made a stupid decision with their money, then Dave will let them know. He’ll also follow up with tips on how to get out of the massive debt that they’ve accumulated.
A new episode is released every single weekday, so you’ll have something to consistently listen to on your journey to take control of your finances.
2. Afford Anything

The motto of this show is, “You can afford anything, but not everything.” Paula works on transforming the way you think about money.
Paula interviews entrepreneurs, millionaires, investors, and celebrities and also answers listener questions about gaining financial independence.
3. How To Money
Listen: Apple Podcasts | Spotify
How to Money is hosted by two friends, Joel Larsgaard and Matt Altmix. This podcast is great because it focuses on navigating everyday finances and life situations.
This podcast gives you practical ways to increase your salary and manage debts that you’ve accumulated before you started taking your personal finances seriously.
Want to learn how to negotiate a higher salary or how to prepare financially for a home repair or a new addition to the family? This is the podcast for you.
4. Yo Quiero Dinero
Listen: Apple Podcasts | Spotify
The host of this show, Janesse Torres-Rodriguez, particularly focuses on stories of Latina women. It was created to help Latinas help navigate their personal finances and inspire them to become financially independent.
Janesse does an amazing job of delivering information to Latina women that hasn’t been so readily accessible in the past.
Even though Yo Quiero Dinero focuses on Latina women, I highly recommend that all women of color listen to this podcast.
5. The Side Hustle Show
Listen: Apple Podcasts | Spotify
If you are finding that you have more bills than you have money then The Side Hustle Show is for you. Nick Loper interviews entrepreneurs from all sorts of backgrounds that started successful side hustles.
Some of the people that he interviews on his podcast were so successful that they replaced their 9 to 5 income (and then some) with their side hustles. Some of the topics covered are blogging, freelancing, investing and so much more.
In these interviews, entrepreneurs, small business owners, and side hustle experts not only talk about how they make money but they let you know the struggles they faced and the steps they took to overcome those struggles.
Podcasts are a great way to gain information on how to start taking control of your finances again. Do you have any podcasts that you listen to that didn’t make the list?
